"Individual data request"

Continuing the discussion from New WU reporting:

i have a hugggee “Individual data request” section that popped up 2 days ago and i can’t figure out why or what it is… i have only done minor tweaks and can’t seem to determine the problem

Bubble doesn’t let me drill down into it to see what the requests are :confused:

No new users, only bug-fixes really (i’m considering rolling those back to see if they make any difference) and my WU usage is typically very stable week-over-week due to the use-case of my app

Here you can see that last week, the “Individual data request” section was quite small, and this week it grew to over 128K WU’s … just mind-blowing and it doesn’t let me drill down and see what’s inside :confused:

I’ve read posts like this one: “Individual Data Requests” and huge WU consumption, a method to prevent the problem but i dont get why it’s suddenly happening, or what specifically it’s coming from as my User object doesn’t have much attached to it… any help would be appreciated :slight_smile:

update, appears one of the “bug fixes” i did was running rampant. basically i have added a “do when” workflow step (it’s supposed to update the user: ‘when a custom state doesn’t match current users thing’) which theoretically should be just a single trigger:
when the user clicks a button:

  1. it updates the custom state’s thing, and then
  2. “do when” updates the user’s thing to match the custom state

But for some reason that’s not happening that way, instead, it’s triggering every 1-2 seconds, and i’m not even sure if that’s a throttle by bubble, or something on my page is somehow refreshing that custom state every 2 seconds… gonna have to dig some more

okay so found it! Opening two tabs in the same user account sometimes (but not always) causes the loop where:

  • the user looks at a new thing in tab 1, updating the custom state
  • tab 1 runs workflow to update user’s thing (as it’s supposed to)
    thenn
  • tab 2 sees that the user’s thing no longer matches it’s custom state,
  • tab 2 updates the user’s thing to match it’s custom state
    thenn the cycle starts over
